Tuning Abarth turbo

i disconnected the battery for at least 30mins, this should reset the ecu and then the car should be better with that turbo, i did it with mine and what psi u running atm?
 
Whats the max bhp the Bravo/Abarth Turbo can handle/produce?

Standard Tjet turbo is pretty much on its limit, injectors are good for 180bhp so what about the turbo?

Also has anyone fitted the Colombo and Bariani cams in colaboration? intrested to know what kind of gains they give
 
I dont no what PSI its running at at the moment sorry. I know I need a new actuator thou. The 1 what came with the turbo seems to have a weak spring so im going to fit a forge adjustable 1 and then I can up the boost abit more too.
 
I have bought and fitted what I believe is a abarth turbo but from reading another post I have doubts. my t-jet 120 turbo had VL 37 printed on it. The 1 I have installed has VL38 on it. is this right??? reading another post VL36 is the abarth turbo. Help please.
 
Does it have a physical part number stamped in it? i can check it against eper, reconditioned numbers should start 717*****
If it's new it could start 606***** should be 8 digits long

You can still get 170ish bhp when you couple the turbo with a decent exhaust and remap.

Thats still some good power figures. Not really clued up on the 500 i thought they used the same turbos as the Grande!

Learn something new everyday :p
 
just to put this topic to sleep i sold joe the turbo who went to confirm that the turbo is off a mito 155/157bhp so produces more power for those who can get access to eper try typing the code in so all the talk off lower boost etc and 500 is not good lads do proper reserch before posting. like i explaned to joe i dont sell crap i fit these turbos everyday and work for fiat and alfa but like wise if any one needs any help gime a shout.
 
No one has said you chat crap? AGP and Bravo 150 turbos are the same. Mito 155 turbo and 500A turbos look to be the same which are different to the AGP turbo and Bravo turbo as they cant give out more than 170bhp.
 
That right mate. the vl38 boosts higher and pulls harder due to a greater impeller speed i wasn't being arsey with any one but with all the comments flyin around you guys know how its.
